Calvin Pryor 'not surprised at all' Browns are struggling

Calvin Pryor didn’t spend much time as a member of the Cleveland Browns. After the Browns traded LB Demario Davis back to the Jets for the former first-round safety, things just didn’t work out. Pryor made the final cut but got waived after picking a fight with Browns WR Ricardo Louis in practice.

He quickly worked his way to Jacksonville, but the Jaguars placed him on injured reserve shortly after claiming him off waivers. Now Pryor is healthy and ready to play, and the Browns are the first team up on the schedule.

It’s safe to say Pryor did not enjoy his two months in Cleveland.

“Honestly, I felt like they didn’t give me an opportunity from the moment I got there,” Pryor told Mike Kaye of First Coast News. “But, you know, it is what it is. I’m happy to be a Jaguar, to come back home and be close to family and friends, some good teammates here, so I think it was for the best.”

When asked if he was surprised if the Browns are struggling so badly through a winless season, Pryor didn’t hesitate to respond, “not at all.”

After failing to come close to meeting expectations in New York and quickly washing out of Cleveland, Pryor is grateful to be with a winning team in Jacksonville. Yet he doesn’t really feel like an ex-Brown.

“It’s going to be feel good, but honestly, my time there wasn’t long, so I really don’t consider them a team I really had history with,” Pryor said.

“I feel like I was just a guy who went through training camp and preseason and got cut. It’s going to be a bittersweet feeling because I’ve been up there before to play them and I’ve won, I’ve come out victorious every time. I feel like it’s just another step in the way.”
